I am considering picking up a Glock 20 Gen 4 for my hunts out west. What is everyone carrying? I only have experience with Smith and Wesson, so I am also considering their M&P 2.0 Performance Center. I also know Sig has some good reviews along with Springfield.

Has anyone had experience with all of these?
 
I have a Glock G20 that I love but just recently purchased a Ruger GP100 & all I can say is OMG truly a pleasure to shoot

When I am out and about these mountains and valleys, more typically, I carry my 1911 in 45 Super loaded with 250 hard cast @1,100fps. Other times, I may be carrying one of my 357 mags with 180 hard cast WFN's. A few times I carry a 44 mag or 45 LC with hard cast WFN's.

I occasionally do as well, with 240 Partition gold, but I prefer a 15+1 and two more 15 mags.😂

I doubt you will ever be able to accurately fire all 15 let alone reach for those other mags. My 45 Super holds 9 rounds including the pipe, and I doubt I will ever need all 9 or even 6 from my revolvers. I've either persuaded the attack to stop, or I am already in a world of hurt. YMMV
 
Have a few 10s now, but I have owned well over twenty 10mms in my time (all kinds - pistols, revolvers, PCCs). I love Smiths, but haven't tried any of the new M&Ps, yet. For your purpose, Can't go wrong with the Glocks - I have a 20 and 29 and have had others of those plus had a 40. However, one of my faves and in bear country, my carry gun is an FN510Tac - 15 and 22 rd mags, its threaded and for fun a good suppressor does quiet it enough to not wear ear protection, optics ready, optics height night sights, has a rail for laser, light, etc., multiple backstraps, they now offer it in a 15rd "kinda" compact - 4.1" barrel vs. 4.7", handles and shoots like a dream and has FN's long proven, 135yrs+ military and public historical and proven functionality and reliability. I have run several mag dumps thru her and with a variety of ammo in the same mag - no issues what so ever, albeit a lil noisy. And, FN was partnered with John Browning for years and are now the Parent Company to both Browning and Winchester.
